MAGIC MILLIE did well to finish ahead of higher-rated rivals in a selling stakes race when scoring over C&D last time and she's taken to land a hat-trick back in a handicap despite her penalty. Cloudy Start continues his slide down the weights and makes his Fibresand debut, while My Mate Mal showed a bit more when third here last time. Broughtons Bandit is lightly-raced and can improve on December's fourth over C&D, but Dunaskin has been below par in a couple of starts since winning at this track at the end of the last year.
